Our Story
For You. For Me. For All of Us.
the journey to self-worth
At 25, she was just beginning her dream job, and eager to make positive change in the world. But at the age of 28, she found herself in a toxic workplace, unrecognized and undervalued compared to her mostly male peers. Suddenly, she was unjustly fired. Spiraling into depression and haunted by a sense of inadequacy that deepened her self-consciousness, the unimaginable happened. She attempted suicide.
From that dark moment, she began a journey to rebuild her sense of self-worth, seeking therapy and taking care of herself in new ways. On her quest, she found support in an unlikely place: skincare rituals from around the world. Lovingly passed down, they speak of a connection to each other with the potential to bring comfort and care to those who feel disconnected and alone. Mixing her own formulas started as a hobby to keep busy but would eventually become her love.
Nourishing my outer layer as I nurtured my inner world helped me find both peace and purpose.
